-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's remember to acknowledge
and show our great appreciation
for the meeting organisers
and those who,
along with their families,
offer their homes for our meetings!
Let's make sure to
finish our meetings on time
and continue taking precautions
to prevent any infections!

Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood.

"If we just chant without any real focus or determination, our prayers won't be fulfilled. As practitioners of Nichiren Buddhism, let's chant wholeheartedly, bring forth wisdom and continue to challenge ourselves with courage and perseverance more than anyone. Buddhism is a teaching that values reason."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [70] Everything Begins with Prayer Infused with the Shared Vow of Mentor and Disciple, from the February 2021 issue of the Daibyakurenge, translation released December 2021.
